Chapter 117: Burning Pear Garden
"Shisan Niang, how can you be so cruel? My cousin has been in the opera house for so many years and has contributed a lot to it." Yu Shuanghua said with red eyes.
He looks like he's standing up for someone who's injustice.
"Shuanghua, don't make things difficult for Shisan Niang." Meng Fusheng said weakly. He looked at Shisan Niang gently without a trace of resentment.
"But you..." Yu Shuanghua said and started crying.
Meng Fusheng looked at Shisan Niang with a gentle smile, "Don't worry about me. Protect the opera house and the opera well. Don't let people with ulterior motives get in."
Jiang Yunxi looked at him with a smile, "Thank you, Fusheng."
The man in black's face darkened. "Are you really not going to hand over the essence of opera?"
"Don't even think about it!" Jiang Yunxi said with an expression that there was no room for negotiation.
"Okay, okay, let's go." The man in black said angrily and walked out first. Seeing this, the other men in black let go of Meng Fusheng and left.
Yu Shuanghua quickly ran towards Meng Fusheng, "Cousin, are you okay?"
Meng Fusheng reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "I'm fine."
"Fusheng, I'm not really going to give up on you. I was just taking a gamble. As long as I don't hand over the essence of opera to them, they won't kill you."
Jiang Yunxi walked up to him and looked at him with a gentle smile. She really liked him, so how could she not care about his life or death?
Although I made the right bet today.
But these men in black have ill intentions and will definitely not give up.
"I know." Meng Fusheng smiled faintly.
"What a good bet, but do you know that your cousin almost died?" Yu Shuanghua said angrily.
"Shuanghua!" Meng Fusheng said in a deep voice.
Yu Shuanghua looked at him with an indignant tone: "Cousin, she is not sincere to you at all. If she has you in her heart, she won't gamble with you."
Jiang Yunxi looked at her and said, "Take him to treat his wounds. I'll go comfort the people in the Pear Garden."
After she finished speaking, she walked away.
"Cousin, look at her, does she really care about you?" Yu Shuanghua stomped her feet and said.
"Stop talking, I'll go back and take care of my wound myself." Meng Fusheng said and left.
"I'll help you."
"inconvenient."
Yu Shuanghua: “…”
The other side.
Jiang Yunxi gathered the people from the opera house together and told them not to be afraid. At the same time, he asked someone to report to the authorities. Jiang Zhou was very optimistic about opera and would not let those people destroy it.
After getting everything done.
She went to find Meng Fusheng, but he was asleep.
There was no opera performance in the opera house that night.
When Jiang Yunxi woke up that night, she and Meng Fusheng were sitting in the pavilion in the yard, with a sumptuous meal and wine on the table.
"Do we have to leave?" Jiang Yunxi asked, feeling sad.
"My mother is seriously ill at home, and I want to go back to take care of her. I haven't been able to show my filial piety to her over the years." Meng Fusheng said calmly.
Jiang Yunxi stared at him and said, "Okay."
After that, she poured a glass of wine for each of them.
The two clinked glasses.
Jiang Yunxi could feel that Shisanniang was feeling bitter. She was really in love with Meng Fusheng, and she was confident about the bet that day.
If the other party does not give in, she will exchange the essence of opera and never sing opera again in this life for him.
It’s a pity that Meng Fusheng doesn’t understand.
Because of what happened that day, there was finally a rift between them.
She wanted to persuade him to stay, but finally decided to let him go. Those men in black would definitely not give up, and she didn't want him to stay here and be in danger.
That day.
Meng Fusheng prepared to leave.
Yu Shuanghua was surprised to learn that he was leaving, "Cousin, are you really leaving the Pear Garden?"
"You leave with him." Jiang Yunxi said.
"I...why do you let me leave?" Yu Shuanghua frowned. She had been in the opera house for two years and enjoyed being sought after here.
She couldn't bear to leave suddenly.
"You came here with your cousin. Now that he is leaving, you should go with him." Jiang Yunxi's voice was cold. She didn't want to see Yu Shuanghua.
When she sees her, she will think of Meng Fusheng.
So she chose not to look at them, and when she got busy, she would gradually forget about them.
"You, you are so cruel!" Yu Shuanghua was full of anger. She didn't expect that after her cousin left, she would drive her away as well.
"You guys go." Jiang Yunxi said and turned around and left without looking back.
Yu Shuanghua: “…”
Jiang Yunxi left the Pear Garden and walked casually on the street. She did not return to the Pear Garden until dark. The manager told her that Meng Fusheng and Yu Shuanghua had left together.
She didn't sleep much that night and only fell asleep near dawn.
When I woke up again.
Many people knelt in front of Shisan Niang, begging her to help them, even government officials were there because many people were poisoned.
The other party threatened that only if Shisan Niang handed over the essence of opera and never performed opera again would they help the poisoned people detoxify.
At the beginning, the government naturally looked for doctors to detoxify the people.
But two days passed and the doctors were unable to cure the disease. The people's condition became increasingly serious. Some of them could not help but run to the Pear Garden to beg Shisan Niang to agree to the other party's conditions.
"I promised them that you can let them come to me tonight to get it, but they have to give me the antidote first." Jiang Yunxi smiled lightly. She was not angry because of the people's request, but her face was calm.
When the people heard this, they all knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude.
Jiang Yunxi sent all the people in the opera house away and gave them generous amounts of money, because the opera house would no longer be open from today on.
Although everyone felt sorry for her and was reluctant to leave, they had to leave.
In the evening, the men in black came to the opera hall as promised.
"I hope you will leave Jiangzhou after getting the things and never come back." Jiang Yunxi sneered.
"Of course." The man in black agreed readily. They were hired here to get what they wanted, and they would naturally leave and never come back.
"Wait a minute, I'll go get it from the backyard." Jiang Yunxi said and walked outside.
She did not try to grasp the essence of opera, but instead set fire to it. After dismissing the people from the opera house, she began to make arrangements.
The opera hall is isolated from the outside.
The men in black inside had no idea what Jiang Yunxi was doing. By the time they felt something was wrong, there was already a strong smell of burning and thick smoke.
The group of people were so scared that their faces turned pale and they ran out quickly.
The sea of fire in front blocked the way.
opposite.
Jiang Yunxi, dressed in a bright red costume, was singing House of Flying Daggers.
Soon the people nearby discovered that the pear garden was on fire, and they all stood up and fetched buckets of water to put out the fire, but it was too late, as the pear garden had already been engulfed in flames.
Shisan Niang left with a smile.
When she was about to close her eyes, she called out "Meng Fusheng".
Jiang Yunxi could feel her despair, pain, sorrow, and of course relief, and soon she lost consciousness.
When she regained consciousness, she had already left the formation.
"You're back?" The ghosts' eyes lit up when they saw her. She was the first one to come back.
Jiang Yunxi nodded.
She instantly guessed that Zhan Beiyuan and the others were not in the Pear Garden.
The Pear Garden was burned down, and the only ones who died were Shisan Niang and those men in black.
